Premier League: Al Ahli are 3 points after Qatar SC, but are inspired to go full throttle. Get this show on the road!
- Al Ahli have the most matches under the total-line (7) in Premier League
- Qatar SC have scored at least twice as many goals away as Al Ahli have scored home.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Qatar SC could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Al Khor. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Al Ahli form and stats
With 1 Premier League win, 2 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Al Ahli are certainly not brimming with confidence.
The Ahli fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here: A 0-6 defeat against Al Duhail (placed 2nd). As you see from the result above, Ahli suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
Ahead of that match, Ahli won a home game hosting Al Sailiya (1-0).Ahli are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League match at Al Gharafa awaits in four days.
Ahli has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 2 goals from 6 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Al Ahli defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Qatar SC form and stats
As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Qatar SC have produced an overall stat of 1-0-3 so far. Qatar has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Qatar play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Al Khor (placed 11th).
Before that, Qatar secured a home win against Al Rayyan with the score 1-0.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Qatar manager Safri as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Al Sadd.
Qatar SC are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 5 away goals from 4 games (in the league). Qatar's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
The duelists have fought earlier this season: Qatar SC - Al Ahli 0-0. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: five - three - two (Ahli wins - draws - Qatar SC wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.Top Goalscorers
